I think the biggest issue is that Wolff is an economist and can only look at things from an economic perspective and not a political one. He never gets into the Socio-political implications so it’s a very limited perspective.

What I personally like about Wolff is that he doesn’t always get into trash talk about China or what have you because politics aren’t his domain. On the other hand you have Chomsky who’s domain IS politics and puts out a lot of liberal crap that confuses not only the people who like him but those looking to learn more about left ideas from him.

I get Karl Kautsky, Scheidemann vibes from Chomsky; a man who would become a turncoat if the revolution wasn’t to his liking. With Wolff he’s just an economist and teacher and I feel like he’d be on board.
